Chocohot

I’ve watched dozens of Chinese fantasy dramas, and this is easily one of the most disappointing. Not only does it rely on those tired and boring memory-loss clichés, but it also features the typical over-the-top protagonist who decides that "protecting" his wife means treating her like trash and humiliating her. I just don't get it. There are at least ten episodes that could have been cut entirely. Add to that a lead couple with zero chemistry, and you have the perfect recipe for a flop. I’m not a "stan" of anyone; I just watch shows and either believe the performance or I don't. I've seen this lead actor in three different series now, and he hasn't impressed me in any of them—his expression is exactly the same in every scene, and he lacks any real depth or emotion. On the other hand, I absolutely love the second lead; his performance in Kill Me Love Me was also brilliant. In short, if you have nothing better to do and feel like giving yourself a headache with a nonsensical plot, this is the show for you. Personally, I would have appreciated a sincere warning so I could have skipped it.
